Dreams who comes true

Well, here we go again. A dream thread about premonition, angst and getting in touch with our consciousness.

I had a dream two nights ago that I went to a store called "A Table for two". I bought two dishes made of beautiful porcelaine, and on each of them was a tea cozy. Under it were keys on a chain. I took the keyes and opened a door. I walked into a vegetarian diner (I´m not a vegetarian) called "Green is Good." There was a soup on the menu and when I took my first spoonful, there was a tiny man in my soup!

Quite strange. Anyone knows what that means?

Your next beau will be a vegeterian, and you will meet him in a restaurant...LOL.......I have no idea actually, but dreams are so interesting, aren't they? I tell you, mine get me to spending many awake hours thinking about them! I'll have to think this one over though......

That is a very interesting dream Lilya, but I have no clue as to the meaning.

I had one of my recurring dreams last night about my husband doing something to me that I thought was very mean, and I am trying to slap the crap out of him, only I can't feel my hand making any impact to his head, so I am trying to hit him harder so I can feel the connection of his head to my hand. LOL

~Juls,
I have had dreams like that. Or when I am trying to run and am moving very slow. I hate that! It stresses me out to no end!

Actually I have had really only one very violent dream and it was this guy I knew. In this one part he is taking this stick and trying to knock my legs out from under me and I kept jumping. After the third time I take the stick from him and start hitting him in the head. After the third time it broke and fell onto his hands and knees right in front of me. I took my half and hit him so hard in the back of the head he died. I have never had dreams like that until this one. I told that to a co-worker and (jokingly) she apologized for everything/and anything she had ever done to me. It was funny!

That was sooo interesting! It almost sounds sute! lol Welll....it does, to me! lol
I have no idea what it means, but if you get a "dream book" maybe that could help you! I really don'[t know!

I heard that dreams or kinda like a "deja vu" has anyone heard that or believe that one? Sometimes something will replay (in real life) to me, like it's happened before somewhere well ya know...deja vu, and I was thinking maybe I dreamt it before who knows?? anyway...Loved your dream!

Butterfly,

I believe in déjÃ* vu. It happened to me when I visited Venice for the first time. I was just a kid, but I knew instinctively my way because I felt connected to that place. It happens every time I go there. I felt I had already been there, which is what the term means.

Woodtick,
You have no idea how right you are. I used to be a maneater. You´re right about that one! LOL, but I have determined not to eat anyone ever again. I promise.

Tammie,
I loved the Vegeterian beau, but I think I´ll pass. I think the dream is about new contracts and new projects.

Lurkings and Juls,
Dreams like you had are about cleansing. It´s the subconscious working and healing, so it´s good this comes out in your dreams. Juls, it´s interesting you cannot touch your husband, it means you feel powerless right now. Lurkings, it seems you are defeating an enemy. Is he a man or a is it something else?

Tonight I dreamt I was given two lambs. Wood, don´t tell me I´ll meet someone from The Silence of the Lambs! LOL

~Lilya,
That dream has to do with this guy who does a great job at making me mad!!!

Okay! I was babysitting last night this little boy. I had a wierd dream about being at his house and needing to take him temperature. The next day Dawn called me and told me he was running a fever and sick. Wierd...

Lilya, tell me about this one it is driving me nuts... Last night I also had a dream that I was at my psychs office and I was laying on a couch and she was sitting in a chair next to me. In her hand was a box of fried chicken. I was supposed to be getting over something by having her feed me this chicken. In stead I take a piece myself and start feeding myself. Everytime she brings a piece near me I turn my head. Then I just keep my eyes shut so I don't have to see her and she keeps trying to feed me... What is that all about?

Lurkings,

Let´s break this dream down.

You´re laying on a couch and your shrink is feeding you fried chicken, which is supposed to make you feel better because of some trauma. Chicken is food, health, new beginnings etc. It could be about comfort.

You take a piece yourself - indicating you want to help yourself and give yourself comfort. But something in you is resisting this feeding from the shrink.

I would thinks it means ambivalence about being in therapy. Or something you don´t want to face, as you turn your head away.

The other dream is a pure exemple of a dream that comes true. We call it premonition over here.

No Lilya, I can touch him alright, LOL, it's that I don't "feel" the sensation of physical contact that frustrates me. I want to "feel" my hand whacking his head. LOL

~Lilya,
She is doing this to help me get over something. Not making me feel better but more as a behavior modification type thing. She is trying to help me change because I have strange coping methods aquired I think.

The ambivalence makes sense because in my eyes I have always felt like I should be able to deal with things myself and not need help. Then the last session she suggested medication, which I myself am a little opposed to. I would never hold it against other people or think any differently but for me its different.

She is trying to feed me... I hate to be touched and my personal space invaded at all and a person has to come close to feed you... Hmm... I know that I haven't told her everything, not that what I have told wasn't enough, but I have really been toying with telling her some other things. I don't want to tell her because I don't want to talk at all. She does most of the talking, I never just come out and say anything, she has to directly ask me or else I just won't talk. I would sit there the whole time in silence, but since she isn't a mind reader I have had to force myself to talk.

Thanks Lilya that has helped me a lot. I love dreams!

Lurkings,

I was wondering about your therapist today. It´s better that she speaks, instead of letting you do all the talking. I was psychoanalyzed for 4 years in my twenties and got even crazier! LOL I talked and talked and analyst just stared at me and nodded. It also costed a fortune. That was a nasty experience.

I think a good therapist is worth their weight in gold. I´ve had some really good ones and some disappointings ones, but my rule of thumb is: "Take what you like and leave the rest."

"And have you suffered so much in vain?" Robert de Niro in "Cape Fear". LOL

Lurkings,

Do you mean your therapist feeds you by hand? As in taking a spoon of food and putting it in your mouth? I've never heard of this before.

~Lilya,
Well, you don't have to worry about me doing most of the talking. I have a hard time getting my mouth to work. Altough this time I did have specific things I wanted to clear up before I really talked to her about things bothering me. Her perameters for reporting things and such... I just don't want to be blind-sided, you know? Think I feel more comfortable with her now more than ever. Although I decided something aren't going to make a difference whether I tell her or not if I can see where the same thing has happened and I already know...

I have had disappointing ones... I think I am lucky to the fact that I know whether or not I am going to be able to trust someone soon after meeting them... The disappointing ones are the people I knew that something wasn't quite right between us and I waited it out because I think everyone deserves chances. I think that is where I get screwed over a lot... Too many chances.

~Juls,
In this dream she was trying to feed me by hand. Why? Does that strike you with another thought? I know I have wierd dreams and I am okay with that! LOL! I don't know what I dreamt last night but I do know that I kept waking up to the sounds of my niece sleep talking. LOL It was so funny... It scared me at first.
